A truly knowledgeable and professional lawyerI hired Ellis B. Klein to represent me in a serious traffic violation. He guided me, before the court date, to take steps that looked good in the eyes of the court. Then, on the day of court, worked with the citing officer to successfully negotiate a greatly reduced charge; which the court approved. And to top it off, Ellis is friendly and pleasant to work with. The experience with Ellis B. Klein as representation made a moment in court that could have otherwise been confusing and intimidating go as smoothly and reassuringly as possible. Hire Ellis B. Klein with confidence.

Great Lawyer!I had a speeding ticket in my town, was going 19 above the limit. My license IS my job so I decided to get a lawyer, found Ellis - let me tell you...money very well spent.

Not only he was very professional and courteous, he got my entire violation dismissed, Hopefully, I will never need his services again but if I will, that will 110% be Ellis Klein. Thank you, sir!!!

Great AttorneyI hired Ellis Klein for my daughter for a driving violation and also a drug possession. Mr. Klein was able to have the driving violation dropped and the drug charges reduced. More importantly, he was able to spare her the requirement for jail time. This is an excellent outcome. Ellis was easy to reach during the entire process. He explained everything so we knew exactly what to expect. He cares about his clients and knows his way around the courthouse. I highly recommend him.

Traffic ViolationI used Ellis as my lawyer for a traffic violation that I had received. I was cited for passing a school bus which came with a loss of license for two months. Ellis was very upfront with me about my chances of appealing this charge. He made my case very personal with the DA and because of his close relationships was able to get the violation reduced. I cannot say enough about how grateful I am that I retained Ellis B. Klein. He was compassionate and kept me informed as he was working with the police and the DA. His former experience as a prosecutor and the relationships he has with many in the court system, helped me tremendously. I would recommend him to anyone needing assistance with a traffic related offense.

DUI CaseI retained Ellis Klein to represent a family member in a DUI case. Mr. Klein provided excellent advise and kept us informed of each phase of the legal process from beginning to end. There were no surprises. Everything pretty much happened as he described it would. Even more impressive was his timeliness and attentiveness to responding to our questions. If he wasn't available, his extremely competent assistant always replied promptly. I would definitely recommend Ellis to represent you.

His demeanor in court was confident and knowledgeable. He saved my reputation and my family from facing serious economic hardship. Thank You

My case was resolved with the best possible outcome.Like many young adults, I made a bad decision that resulted in very serious consequences. I was afraid and nervous. Ellis was very straight-forward when he explained things to me, telling what the best outcome could be as well as the worst. Through his knowledge, professionalism, and legal reputation, my case was resolved with the best possible outcome.

Ellis B. Klein, the miracle worker.My former attorney Mr. Ellis B. Klein, took my case on head first with me and my parents doing eveything we both could think of to obtain the best possible outcome. In doing so Mr. Klein got a 2-4 years mandintory state sentence dropped to 4-14 months country prision sentence. Also proceeded to read my character reference letters and type up one of his own to help sway the judge to a lesser sentence. On top of that Mr. Klein skillfully came up with a series of questions to ask during the case to pinpoint specific details of our case that he wanted my parents and I to explain in our own words infront of the judge. Our case was presented, the DA wanted 6 months county for a minimum sentence and the judge let me off with 3 years probation. thank you once again Ellis. hope you read this.

Excellent Outcome!I come from a family of lawyers and I have to say that Mr. Klein was tremendously professional and effective. He worked magic on my case and his fees were reasonable. I am very satisfied and would recommend him to anyone needing a good lawyer!

He sat me down, explained our options and reassured me that he will do the best he can to resolve this situation. I can now sleep at night knowing my case is in the hands of a true professional.

Excellent RepresentationCouldn't have asked for a better result...looking at 5 points and a license suspension for my ticket, but Mr. Klein got it reduced to 2 points. He was very personable and professional in every way and had an excellent rapport with the judge.

Highly ProfessionalEllis Klein is an outstanding attorney. He is very knowledgeable of all aspects of the law and is able to litigate effectively. He was readily available and achieved the most favorable outcome. I would not hesitate to utilize this attorney for any legal matter. I would recommend him and his firm without hesitation.

....Ellis with his experience was able to secure a no-point solutionEllis was straight forward, described clearly the possible outcomes for the case and was able to secure a positive outcome. Was facing 4 points for speeding, but Ellis with his experience was able to secure a no-point solution. I am very extremely pleased the way he resolved my issue. To have an attorney like Ellis on your side is a win-win situation. Highly recommend

Quick, Pertinent Info DeliveredI contacted another Atty in the area 4 times, who claimed to attend each case personally -- never heard back from him. Ellis understood my frustration, got to the core of my challenge & was able to uncover the right information quickly. I would have still been in the dark, waiting for another "to personally handle my case". Thanks, Ellis!

Ellis responded to my calls with prompt and professional service.I was pulled over for a speeding violation on I-95, in Bucks County by the Pennsylvania State Police in late January of 2012. I was clocked at 28 miles over the speed limit. I was looking at 5 points added to my license.

I've used Ellis in the past for another Speeding ticket over 3 years ago. Ellis responded to my calls with prompt and professional service. As promised, he was able to reduce the points, saving me hundreds on my car insurance.

Above and BeyondI contacted Mr. Klein in regards to a legal matter in which I thought I was wrongly accused by law enforcement. After discussing the matter with Mr. Klein I felt very confident in hiring him and his firm to represent me in this matter. Like any other new relationship I was not sure Mr. Klein could do everything he said he would be able to but I still felt, after talking to other attorneys that he would be the most likely to achieve a positive outcome with the greatest possibility of success for my case. My instincts prove to be right about Mr. Klein in his handling of my case as he delivered everything he promised. Further, Mr. Klein went above and beyond in his duties as my attorney when I had the unfortunate experience of having to handle a family medical emergency directly before my case with to court and Mr. Klein had to handle all of that as well. Regardless Mr. Klein took care of everything and handled my case perfectly! In the future if and when the need for legal representation surfaces I will be highering Mr. Klein and his firm again as well as referring them to all of my friends who may have legal needs as well!

Mr. Klein was able to meet all of my expectations.Mr. Klein was able to meet all of my expectations. He was able to negotiate my ticket down and that was due to his prior knowledge of the district court where my case was being heard. He also had prior interaction with the officer, which helped. He kept me informed on what to expect, which helped. I would highly recommend Mr. Klein.

Made me feel I was in good hands.Ellis has represented me two times. I felt I was in good hands each time. He was extremely knowledgable and trustworthy. He took the time to inform me of all the aspects of the case, how they would affect me, and what my best options were. I would recommend him to anyone in need of good legal help.

Great Defense LawyerHe was very professional and upfront, told me exactly what to expect, promptly returned any calls, was affordable, was knowledgeable, had a great reputation, was highly reccomended, and was very helpful overall.

Best lawyer I ever had.Mr. Klein was honest and kept me informed weather i was facing a good sentence, or a bad one. I would have to say that is very rare to find in a lawyer. i would recommend him highly to anyone!

A responsive, reliable and knowledgeable attorney.Gives you the information you need in a concise, easy to understand manner. Easy to talk to- listens to your concerns and responds knowledgeably. Empathetic to your unease but doesn't sugar-coat the facts. Seems to have a good rapport with court staff, DA and judges. Follows through with commitments.

Knowledge and FinesseMr. Klein has a strong knowledgeable background in criminal law which is why I first choose him. His confidence and understanding of people was both reassuring and accurate. Like most I had no courtroom experiences and he informed every step of the way. Leading to our day in court he worked with us to insure we had access to the necessary experts and paperwork to support our claims of ignorance. I say ignorance because there was guilt it was not however backed with bad intent and he helped us through it.There were instances when I wanted to demonstrate what I thought to be valid points. He listened then explained and proved to be right with his advice. Listening it seems is not lost with Ellis and I would recommend him to loved ones with enthusiasm.

Trust in Ellis B. Klein...anywhere, anytime!I was in a hard spot to handle when I wrote on a prescription, I didn't know, but when they would not take it at the pharmacy I went to the same brand pharmacy just in a different location telling them I had made a mistake, but they didn't care. I told the pharmacist what I did but it didn't matter. A tiny detail like changing one number on a prescription paper was a huge mistake; which landed me a 4-count felony charge. Then I got the best letter in the mail along with ten other ones; Mr. Klein's detailed letter stuck out from all the rest of the other lawyers. With honest words and a great background he was definitely my top pick. He got me out of trouble and made the charges disappear by having great relationships with other judges and DA's. Mr. Klein knows what he's doing well beyond any other lawyer, my parents and I were overall--impressed. I would recommend Ellis B. Klein any time to a friend or family member, so If you are looking for a lawyer for any reason, please, do not hesitate to seek out Mr. Klein, for his skills in law are a force to be reckoned with.

Professional Service RenderedI was overwhelmed with the dozens of attorneys that I had available to me but Mr. Klein, through his professionalism and prompt attention, made me feel confident in my choice for him to take my case. He explained the process and procedures and brought my case to a successful completion. I appreciate his professional service and would refer him to anyone in need of legal advice.

Excellent AttorneyEllis is a great attorney, he gave me a confident feeling about my case. As well as coming through for me. I will recommend him to all family and friends. He does a Great job.

Unprecedented Results from a Constant Professional: Meet Ellis KleinThere is no other way to put it, Ellis worked a true miracle. Imagine your worst nightmare... reckless driving, 44 mph over the limit and illegal passing. That was my predicament and that is what I was cited for. Ellis worked the courtroom with professionalism and class personified. He successfully reduced my charges to a minimal 5MPH over the limit citation. THAT'S IT. No reckless driving, no illegal passing, no 44mph over the limit. I'll repeat it. Ellis got my sentence reduced to ONLY a simple 5mph over the limit citation. If you don't know, in PA, without Ellis I would have lost my license for 6 months and my insurance would have gone through the roof. I will recommend him to anyone in need. Words can't describe my gratification. Thanks, Ellis.

Great lawyer and very dependable.He always kept me updated on my case and laid out every option I had very clearly so i could understand. If i ever need a lawyer i no I am goin to ellis. He help me out so much.

Superb RepresentationObviously I was petrified about what was going to happen to me when I got a DUI. I contacted Ellis B. Lein through a recommendation from a friend.. It was the best thing I ever did. I felt comfortable with Ellis from our first meeting on. I could see Ellis was knowledgable and serious about his profession. Ellis made me feel like my DUI was our problem, not just mine, Ellis fully explained the charges, our options, and we put a plan together that made me feel 100% better about my situation.

Ellis kept in touch with me to make sure I was working to complete the plan we put together. I completed the items that would make a positive impact on the legal authorities and prove to them that I was serious about my DUI and straightening out my life related to drinking. The police and township judge recognized my efforts and worked with me in regard to my mistake.

The sentencing judge immediately recognized and acknowledged my efforts to help my situation moving forward. I received the minimum sentence allowable which was a huge relief and obviously proved that the plan we put together was the correct avenue to follow.

Moving forward I would recommend Ellis B. Klein to represent any of my family and friends with a DUI or any other legal problems they may have.

Good Luck with your legal issue.

I would Highly recommend Ellis Klein to represent anyone...I would Highly recommend Ellis Klein to represent anyone who is facing a DUI charge. If you are perhaps a multiple offender than Ellis is your man. I was facing a 2nd DUI charge that could have snowballed into a 3rd or 4th offense very easily. With Ellis' representation and expertise, I was able to secure the charge of 2nd offense DUI.. My penalty was 6 months house arrest 24 months probation, 100 hours of community service and 1800 DUI fine. It could have been much much worse, but with Ellis Klein standing beside me in court and coaching me all along through the process things turned out for the best. I am able to keep my job, my little home and care for my daughter. Thanks Ellis, and I recommend this attorney highly for anyone who finds themselves in a stressful legal situation.

Ellis B. Klein's response: "Thanks, Matt - it was truly my pleasure representing you and I am glad you are pleased with the results. Best of luck - Ellis"

Hardest Worker AroundEllis Klein is the best! I hired him for a dui over a year ago, and got a driving with license suspension afterwards. Ellis Klein not only kept me out of jail, but got my charges knocked down to less than the bare minimum, and I received a refund from all the fines I had to pay. Ellis was honest and trustworthy and worked hard to help me continue to rebuild my life back.

RedeamedI previously wrote about how I recieved house arrest but was not appoved to go to work in NJ. Ellis worked quickly and professionally to correct the issue. While we disagree as to whether my telling him or the CCO informing him to handle out of state work release we'll have to agree to disagree. I think he's proven himself to be a very good lawyer and will take the time in the future to inform and assure his clients approptiately in the future. He definitely deserves props on how he corrected the situation.

Ellis B. Klein's response: "I am glad things worked out for you and that you have retracted your review below entitled "Horrible Lawyer." As you saw, I take each case personally and if my client has a problem, I take immediate action to correct them. I am happy that Judge Bateman saw it fit to Order the prison to allow you to work while serving your sentence on house arrest. Best of luck in the future, -Ellis"

Within a week I was approved! I was very satisfied.Ellis Klein put in a request for me to receive the ARV Program for people with first time offense. I was denied the first time. Ellis Klein wrote a letter to the DA asking him to rethink his decision. Within a week I was approved! I was very satisfied. Great lawyer to do business with.

...made sure I was prepared and ultimately had my case dismissed...Ellis provided me with all the information as to what I should expect in the court room, answered all of my questions, made sure I was prepared and ultimately had my case dismissed -- when the odds for dismissal were not favorable for this type of case. Thank You, Ellis!

Ellis was experienced and supportive.Ellis was experienced and supportive. He kept me informed and made me feel at ease.

I was extremely happy with the outcome of my case.I responded to an offer through the mail for a no-charge initial consultation over the phone and Mr. Klein was very knowledgble and easy to talk to. There was no pressure to retain him, just an offer to meet for a no-charge consultation at his office. At the consultation he was thorough and obviously competent, took his time with me, and explained the challenges and potential problems of my case. He explained what the procedure would be and what he would do for me. I hired him and was very satisfied throughout our entire relationship, which lasted about five months. His office staff was friendly and helpful, and I did not have any trouble getting answers to questions either from him or staff. Mr. Klein appeared to have a good working relationship with the police officers and judge we dealt with. I was extremely happy with the outcome of my case.

He had a very professional presence, was confident...Ellis Klein is a terrific attorney. He represented my son in an adult DUI case. Ellis was understanding and sympathetic yet very forthright regarding the seriousness of the issue. He was extremely knowledgeable of the process and kept us informed at every step. He was very accommodating of our schedule and often went out of his way to take on many of the administrative burdens that would have normally been our responsibility. He had a very professional presence, was confident (but not arrogant) and kept us calm throughout a very traumatic situation. He was a critical factor in my son receiving the best possible outcome from this DUI event.

Best God Damn LawyerTold me all the facts and laws straight forward...didn't make empty promises...actually he under delivered himself..kept me informed and felt like I had a friend on my side threw every step..not only did he reduce my 6 point ticket to no points...but he also handled other charges ...completely amazed me and my girl friend and we have had other lawyers..i feel confident referring him and his associates..look no farther for representation

...readily available to my concerns and quick to respond to my questions.Mr. Klein was readily available to my concerns and quick to respond to my questions. He spoke to me truthfully and explained what He would plead and what we might expect. He was most honest with my case and I would recommend his services to everyone.

Kept me out of jail...Ellis Klein's outstanding knowledge of the law and his friendly relationship with police officers was instrumental in the amazing outcome of my case. I won't deny that Judge Brown was very generous and kind, but if Ellis had not worked with the officer who issued the citation to lessen the charges, I would be serving 6 months in jail. It would have impacted my life severely and broken my family apart. I highly recommend Mr. Klein.
